GDT: Gold Medal Game - February 25 - Russia vs Germany

[Fantomas]

I am frankly ashamed of Russia's performance. Not even their effort but their level. They are not good.

Regardless of the result every coach on this team should be fired.

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Kovalchuk to win it in overtime...book it

 

[PG Canuck]

Best game in a long time in hockey period

 

[chances14]

so much choking. making for a very entertaining game though

 

[Eisen]

I can't believe how they oafed around on the last powerplay....

 

[Stive Morgan]

Kovalchuk to win it in overtime...book it

It's gotta be Gusev tbh

 

[herashak]

The OAR jerseys are sweet

 

[Huokaus]

I woke up and tuned in to watch the third period... Boy oh boy I'm glad I did. Insane.

 

[IamNotADancer]

As a canadian i never want nhl'ers in the olympics ever again.

As a European I disagree. That's some brutal hockey we are watching. Sure it's exciting, but in a cringe worthy way.

 

[Jussi]

This is gonna go to another shootout isn't it?

That really needs to GTFO.

Can't have the game going on during closing ceremonies.

 

[Hutz]

German goalie needs to hold his posts much better. thats 2 goals he was caught away from the post and it snuck in.

He's definitely got a weak spot.

 

[Canuckistani]

Russia wins in the first 5 mins, bank on it.

 

[danron1376]

just please, no shootout gimmick win

 

[Cloned]

As much as I enjoyed Canada winning gold in shutdown fashion in Sochi, this is so much more entertaining to watch.

 

[Ilyeu]

The game was f***ing wrapped, with a BOW for the Germans.

3-2, 2 minutes left with a 2 minute power play. How do you blow it and holy shit the German Goalie sucks.

He let Sweden and Canada come back in the game and f***ed up his team mates twice with the same soft goal, same weak spot right glove side, by the same player.

 

[Xokkeu]

I can't believe how they oafed around on the last powerplay....

Seidenberg should not have shot that puck right into the defender. You have 5-4 just play keep away

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

We are in butt clench time

Thats.....uh..... pretty extreme id say.

 

[Osprey]

Why were they playing that PP to take a shot or even letting Russia touch the puck???

That's what I was thinking during that PP. They were trying to score when they should've tried not to score by just maintaining possession and playing keep away with the Russians to kill the clock. That would've delayed the Russians being able to pull the goaltender.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Yeah I don't see Germany pulling through

 

[Autism]

I wish Gusev was in the NHL

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

What. A. Game.

 

[varsaku]

༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ GERMANY TAKE OUR ENERGY ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

 

[Moncherry]

Germany played that powerplay the stupidest way possible. It was like they were trying to give Russia a chance.

 

[Northerner]

Best game in a long time in hockey period

Definitely. Better than any ho-hum NHL game I've seen all year long by a long shot.

 

[tntkid]

Get off your knees German goalie.

Top shelf always wide open.
